Haha, yeah, he does like that name, doesn't he? I remember when I found that shirt with the four kings (ace, spade, hearts, and diamonds) on it - it screamed Jhon, and I had to get it for him.
I imagine it would get fairly difficult to respond to fan mail -- at least that would be the hope. I'd love to be able to respond to them all -- but the more coming in, the more famous and well liked I'd obviously be

Hm, I've actually been thinking over this lately. I don't think I'd go with my first two initials and then last name, 'cause it just doesn't sound right. - C. L. doesn't go with any last name-
But lately I've had to hear about what my Dad's commander has nicknamed him, and I think that's what I'd go by. I'd be Chris Groomster. Yep, has a certain ring to it. xp
Oh, and to get off topic, can someone please try and imagine a commander running up to one of his soldiers in the middle of a firefight yelling," Groomster! Groomster!" -.-;; |

I hate my name. I mean, my first name - Katie - is okay, but it's kinda blah, and my initials are KAS, not including my last name. Plus a certain famous published historian shares my last name. It's not even supposed to be my last name, it's the name of my brother and sister and my mom before she met my step father. I'd never use my real father's last name, and my mom's maiden name's kinda out there. Plus it's really Italian and I'm so obviously Irish. I need to make something up. It'll probably be an inside joke. K.M. Curtis... Haha.

My name has been misspelled so many times... I've actually been called 'Muddy' before. Plus, the way I spell Madeleine isn't the normal way, so people end up misspelling THAT...
so yeah,when (if) I get published I might just go with M.D. Foley, no matter how stupid it sounds. Or just think up something else. Thing is, that I love my last name and couldn't bear to part with it, even for my mother's maiden name which is very Scottish.
Heh... I'll bet my grandpa would be proud of me if I switched, though... he's not all that into the Irish. xD

Should I ever get anything published, I would go by J E Subres. It's not my name, It's my great great grandmother's on my mothers side, but I like it ;D

Haha, I like that last name. That's a fun one.
I don't remember if I mentioned it or not, but when we were 15-16, Allison and I would talk about writing books together and calling ourselves Rsheac (pronounced "R. Shay C.") which is the first initial, middle name, and last initial of one of our characters, lol. I still think it has a good flow, but I'd never use it as a penname, lol.

If I actually ever got to the point where I was publishing my work, I'd definitely write under an assumed name. I think I'd get annoyed very easily if just about anyone could figure out who I was and get at me any time. I like my privacy. If I was going to make up a name though, I'd go all out with something like Pandora Wintersnap on Xanthippe Crosspot. Give 'em something to remember.

I actually already go by various pseudonyms. Rozamond being one of them.  If I were to get published, though, I'd DEFINITLEY go by one. Because... like... in real life, people misspell my first AND last name. And let's not get into mispronounciations here... oh, boy. |

I actually used to write fanfiction under the penname Joan O'Neill, but I recently switched almost everything to kdlaxgoalie, which is much easier for me to remember, but if I ever wrote an origional and published it I would probably use my real name because I love my name. All cool names are reserved for the kids I may someday have.

I'm half french half irish. So I'd use my mom's maiden name and I"d be Eponine Courtois, or be irish and use my actual first name and be Margaret "Maggie" Fallon. I hate my actual last name because it's and easily misspronounced german last name. I'm not even german!

My real name is way too normal. I would not use that. L.C.G. is weird; looks nice, but if you actually say my last name, it sounds so weird.
I think if I ever got anything published, I'd use my brother's name, T. J. Grei. I think that rolls off the tongue pretty well. And it'll be good to remember him by doing that.

Haha, if I had to use one, it would be S.P.P. Path.
It has nothing to do with my real name whatsoever. But my title is The Self-Proclaimed Psychopath. So that's what it stands for.
